She was commissioned into the German Imperial Navy on 1 June 1915 as UC-3.[Note 1] Mines laid by UC-3 in her 29 patrols were credited with sinking 22 ships and damaging 2 others. UC-3 was caught in a net, detected by hydrophone, and sunk on 23 April 1916 or mined and sunk on 27 May 1916.[4][5]
Design
A Type UC I submarine, UC-3 had a displacement of Script error: No such module "convert". when at the surface and Script error: No such module "convert". while submerged. She had a length overall of Script error: No such module "convert"., a beam of Script error: No such module "convert"., and a draught of Script error: No such module "convert".. The submarine was powered by one Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft six-cylinder, four-stroke diesel engine producing Script error: No such module "convert"., an electric motor producing Script error: No such module "convert"., and one propeller shaft. She was capable of operating at a depth of Script error: No such module "convert"..Script error: No such module "Footnotes".Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".
The submarine had a maximum surface speed of Script error: No such module "convert". and a maximum submerged speed of Script error: No such module "convert".. When submerged, she could operate for Script error: No such module "convert". at Script error: No such module "convert".; when surfaced, she could travel Script error: No such module "convert". at Script error: No such module "convert".. UC-3 was fitted with six Script error: No such module "convert". mine tubes, twelve UC 120 mines, and one Script error: No such module "convert". machine gun. She was built by AG Vulcan Stettin and her complement was fourteen crew members.Script error: No such module "Footnotes".Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".
Fate
UC-3 was the first submarine to be detected and sunk using a hydrophone. UC-3Template:'s fate have different version: One is on 23 April 1916 she was detected using a hydrophone, trapped in a net, and then quickly sunk after a large explosion.[4] The ship that sank her was the anti-submarine trawler Cheerio, captained by Thomson.[6] Another is on 27 May 1916, she got mined and sunk.[5]
